根据 Stratistics MRC 的数据，2024 年全球氦气市场规模为 39.275 亿美元，预计到 2030 年将达到 64.788 亿美元，预测期内复合年增长率为 8.7%。

氦气是一种惰性气体，属于元素週期表第 18 族（稀有气体）。氢是唯一最轻的元素，氦是第二轻的元素。氦气无色、无臭、无味，在 -268.9°C (-452°F) 的极低温度下变成液体。令人惊讶的是，它的沸点和凝固点比任何已知物质都低。氦在宇宙中含量丰富，约占其质量的 23%，使其成为仅次于氢的第二丰富元素。虽然地球大气中的含量很少（1/200,000），但天然气中的含量却很高，尤其是在美国。由于其重量轻，它是固特异飞艇等飞艇充气的首选气体。它的沸点是所有元素中最低的，在极低的温度下可以变成具有超流性、超导性等惊人特性的液体。

根据国际医学磁振造影学会的数据，超过 1.5 亿患者曾接受 MRI 扫描。每年约有 1000 万患者接受 MRI 检查。

医疗保健领域的需求不断增加

氦气是各种医疗应用中使用的重要元素，包括核磁共振造影系统、低温储存、呼吸治疗和医疗设备中的洩漏检测。慢性病的增加、医学影像技术的进步以及新兴市场医疗保健基础设施的扩张正在推动医疗保健产业对氦气的需求。使用氦气冷却的核磁共振造影系统在诊断成像中越来越普及，尤其是在已开发国家。

蕴藏量和资源有限

氦气的有限性为其市场蒙上了长长的阴影。与石油和天然气不同，氦气是一种埋藏在地下的不可再生资源。一旦提取并释放，它就会因其重量而逃离地球大气层。结果，供应量逐渐减少。市场在两方面都感受到了压力。随着资源变得稀缺，价格可能会上涨。其次，除非开发出永续的替代方案，否则核磁共振成像和太空探勘等重要应用在未来可能会受到限制。

扩大电子工业

氦气在各种电子设备的生产和运作中发挥着重要作用，特别是在半导体和光纤领域。在半导体製造中，氦气对于微晶片和其他电子元件生产过程中的冷却和净化至关重要。该行业对氦气的需求是由智慧型手机、电脑、汽车电子和物联网设备中先进半导体技术的日益使用所推动的。此外，氦气也用于製造通讯网路中高速资料传输的光纤，这正在推动市场成长。

开采成本高

从天然气中提取氦需要复杂的低温蒸馏和精製过程，需要专门的设备和技术。此外，氦气提取通常在偏远地区进行，进一步增加了运输和物流成本。这些高昂的提取成本增加了整体生产成本，使氦气成为提取和精製最昂贵的气体之一。因此，氦气供应商面临维持盈利的压力，同时满足各行业不断增长的需求，阻碍了市场成长。

COVID-19 的影响

虽然全球经济放缓减少了製造业、医疗保健和电子等各行业对氦气的需求，但由于其在医疗应用中的重要作用，尤其是核磁共振造影系统，医疗保健领域对氦气的需求相对稳定。然而，停工期间供应链中断和工业活动减少影响了氦气的生产和分配，导致供应和价格的短期波动。

预计天然气业务将在预测期内成为最大的业务

由于氦气在洩漏检测、气相层析法、焊接和切割、冷却和冷冻以及核能等各个领域的日益普及，预计氦气将在预测期内达到高峰。此外，氦气在物理、化学和材料科学等领域的科学研究和实验中也至关重要。氦气在低温研究、低温和高温研究中发挥重要作用，并在许多分析仪器中用作载气。

医疗保健领域预计在预测期内复合年增长率最高

医疗保健产业的各个领域的产品使用量正在增加，包括核磁共振造影系统、内视镜检查、雷射技术、呼吸混合物、正子和正子断层扫描 (PET)。氦气球、繫留气球和飞艇用于监测和监测目的。它为雷达、摄影机和通讯设备等各种有效载荷提供稳定的平台，并用于边防安全、军事监视、灾害管理等。

比最大的地区

由于富氦天然气蕴藏量丰富，预计北美在预测期内将占据最大的市场占有率。此外，美国也是联邦氦储备库的所在地，该储备库成立于 1925 年，是世界上最大的氦仓储设施之一。该氦库存透过向各行业供应氦产品，在全球市场中发挥了重要作用。因此，北美拥有成熟的医疗保健产业，在医疗影像设备（主要是磁振造影造影 (MRI)）中使用氦气。

复合年增长率最高的地区：

由于医疗保健、航太和电子等各行业的高需求，预计欧洲在预测期内将保持最高的复合年增长率。德国拥有生产高品质医疗设备的悠久历史，专注于精密仪器、诊断成像和光学技术。它是继美国、日本之后的全球第三大医疗设备市场，在欧洲市场规模是法国的两倍，义大利、英国、西班牙的三倍。

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Helium Market is accounted for $3927.5 million in 2024 and is expected to reach $6478.8 million by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 8.7% during the forecast period. Helium is an inert gas found in Group 18 (noble gases) of the periodic table. It is the second lightest element, with only hydrogen being lighter. Helium is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, and it becomes a liquid at an incredibly low temperature of -268.9°C (-452°F). Remarkably, its boiling and freezing points are lower than those of any other known substance. Helium is abundant in the universe, constituting about 23% of its mass, second only to hydrogen. While it occurs in Earth's atmosphere in small amounts (1 part in 200,000), significant volumes are found in natural gases, especially in the United States. It's the gas of choice for filling airships like the Goodyear blimp due to its lightness. It has the lowest boiling point of all elements, and it can become a liquid with remarkable properties, such as superfluidity and superconductivity at extremely low temperatures.

According to the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, over 150 million patients underwent MRI examinations. Every year, approximately 10 million patients undergo MRI procedures.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Growing demand from healthcare sector

Helium is an essential element used in various medical applications, including MRI machines, cryogenic storage, respiratory therapy, and leak detection in medical devices. The increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, advancements in medical imaging technologies and the expanding healthcare infrastructure in emerging markets are driving the demand for helium in the healthcare sector. MRI machines, which rely on helium for cooling, are becoming increasingly widespread for diagnostic imaging, particularly in developed countries.

Restraint:

Limited reserves & finite resources

Helium's limited nature casts a long shadow on its market. Unlike oil or natural gas, it's a non-renewable resource trapped underground. Once extracted and released, it escapes Earth's atmosphere due to its lightness. This creates a ticking clock on the supply. The market feels this pinch in two ways. Prices are likely to rise as the resource becomes more scarce. Secondly, crucial applications like MRIs and space exploration face potential future limitations if sustainable alternatives aren't developed.

Opportunity:

Expanding electronics industry

Helium plays a crucial role in the production and operation of various electronic devices, particularly in the semiconductor and fiber optics sectors. In semiconductor manufacturing, helium is essential for cooling and purging during the production of microchips and other electronic components. The demand for helium in this industry is driven by the growing use of advanced semiconductor technologies in smartphones, computers, automotive electronics, and IoT devices. Additionally, helium is used in the production of optical fibers for high-speed data transmission in telecommunications networks which drives the markets growth.

Threat:

High extraction costs

Extracting helium from natural gas involves a complex process of cryogenic distillation and purification, which requires specialized equipment and technology. Additionally, helium extraction often occurs in remote locations, further increasing transportation and logistical costs. These high extraction costs contribute to the overall production expenses, making helium one of the most expensive gases to extract and purify. As a result, helium suppliers face pressure to maintain profitability while meeting the growing demand from various industries impedes the market growth.

Covid-19 Impact

While the global economic slowdown led to reduced demand for helium across various industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, and electronics, the healthcare sector's demand for helium remained relatively stable due to its essential role in medical applications, particularly in MRI machines. However, supply chain disruptions and decreased industrial activity during lockdowns affected helium production and distribution, leading to short-term fluctuations in supply and prices.

The gas segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The gas is expected to be the largest during the forecast period attributed to increasing product adoption in various areas of applications including leak detection, gas chromatography, welding & cutting, cooling & refrigeration, and in nuclear power, among others. Furthermore, helium gas is indispensable in the realm of scientific research and experimentation, spanning disciplines, such as physics, chemistry, and materials science. It plays a critical role in cryogenic studies, low-& temperature investigations, and serves as a carrier gas in a multitude of analytical instruments.

The medical & healthcare segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The medical & healthcare segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the increasing product usage in various areas of applications in the medical & healthcare sectors, such as MRI machines, endoscopy, laser technology, breathing mixtures, spectroscopy, and in positron emission tomography (PET), among others. Helium-filled aerostats, tethered balloons, or blimps are used for surveillance and monitoring purposes. They provide a stable platform for various payloads, including radar, cameras, and communication equipment, which are used in border security, military surveillance, and disaster management.

Region with largest share:

North America is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period due to the presence of abundant reserves of helium-rich natural gas. In addition, the U.S. is home to the Federal Helium Reserve, which was established in 1925 and is one of the world's largest helium storage facilities. The reserve has played a significant role in the global market by supplying the product to various industries. Hence North America has a well-established healthcare sector that relies on helium for medical imaging equipment, primarily magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines.

Region with highest CAGR:

Europe is projected to hold the highest CAGR over the forecast period owing to the high demand from different sectors, such as healthcare, aerospace, electronics, and others. Germany has a long history of producing high-quality medical equipment, emphasizing precision instruments, diagnostic imaging, and optical technologies. The nation hosts the third-largest medical devices market in the world, after the United States and Japan, and the largest in Europe, comprising twice the size of the French market and three times as large as those of Italy, the United Kingdom, and Spain.
